Hur mycket får man citera från en artikel?

Om nu Flashback följer amerikansk praxis, som man gör med yttrandefriheten, då är det så kallad ”fair use” som gäller. Den guidas av en fyrapunkters checklista:

”In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include:

the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;

the nature of the copyrighted work;

the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and

the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.”
